This is the GP2040-CE v0.7.6 firmware release.

In this release we see some incredible new additions to the GP2040-CE firmware along with many fixes, improvements and overall code cleanup on the back end.

The GP2040-CE team is happy to announce Xbox One X/S and Series X/S compatibility via passthrough USB authentication!!! Currently the Mayflash MagicBoots Xbox One and Mayflash Magic-X can be used and we will look to expand this compatibility more in the future.

Along with Xbox One X/S and Series X/S compatibility we have added in native support for the original Xbox with no passthrough or keys required.

We are also happy to announce the addition of mini-console support for the following systems:

  • Genesis Mini
  • MD Mini
  • Neo Geo Mini
  • PC Engine
  • TurboGrafx 16 Mini
  • Egret II Mini
  • AstroCity Mini
  • Playstation Classic

In addition to the new modes there has been a redo of the pin mapping system allowing any pin to be assigned to any input and have multiple instances of that input.

We have also redone our documentation section and website to be easier to navigate and better accessed on mobile.

** A very important notice that this version of the firmware will have breaking changes for anyone that has made backups on previous versions. As such, you will need to setup your board from scratch with this release **

This is the GP2040-CE v0.7.5 firmware release.

This release focuses on a number of back end code changes as well as documentation updates and new add-ons as well as fixes to old addons.

Macros have been introduced into the GP2040-CE firmware which will allow you to make and execute custom macros via the web-config. We ask that you use macros responsibly!

Please note that while we do multiple tests prior to release we cannot test for all permutations of add-on combinations! You may need to nuke and reload the firmware.

If you are a seller of products that use GP2040-CE it is highly recommended that you test out your unique applications of the firmware before sending to customers.

v0.7.4

This is the GP2040-CE v0.7.4 firmware release.

This release focuses on a number of back end code changes as well as documentation updates and new add-ons as well as fixes to old addons.

There are two major changes in this release:

  • PS4 and PS5 compatibility via USB passthrough authentication (PS5 support only as a legacy PS4 fightstick, not native). To enable this go into web-config -> settings --> PS4 and then change the controller to an arcade stick then go to the add-ons section and enable passthrough and map the appropriate pins. We will have a guide on how to wire this soon as well as gerber and source files for getting boards made to accept USB devices.
  • Changes to the default pin mapping on many devices. In response to some concerns around default pin mappings we have disabled the display and RGB LEDs on any device that by default does not have them built in. This should address some conflicts that people have been running into and strange behaviour on boards. Images will be updated to reflect this in time.

A highlight of the other new additions are:

  • Reintroduction of the Keyboard Host addon
  • Enhancement of the hotkey options to include L3 / R3 / Touch Pad
  • Multiple new devices added to configurations (SGF Devices, MiSTer Addons)
  • New hotkey action which can be used to reboot the device
  • Ability to set profile number in web-config and also switch between action / direction buttons
  • Improvements to the Joystick slider add-on to allow for more flexibility like what is currently implemented for SOCD modes

As with previous releases it is recommended that you backup your settings before upgrading if you have made changes to your setup.

Please note that while we do multiple tests prior to release we cannot test for all permutations of add-on combinations! You may need to nuke and reload the firmware.

If you are a seller of products that use GP2040-CE it is highly recommended that you test out your unique applications of the firmware before sending to customers.
